My toddler loves pasta and this gouda cheddar mac and cheese is up there on his list of favorite foods.
I do not like to feed him the boxed stuff, you know the stuff most of us all grew up eating. Why? Because it is not natural and really does not compare whatsoever to the real stuff.
This is the real stuff. I have made a basic baked Cheddar Mac and Cheese on this blog. However, this recipe here is TOP NOTCH. As it is made with 2 amazing cheeses = Gouda & Cheddar!

Just ask me toddler 🙂 he will say YES YES YES MAMA I want more!
